A Chassidic Slant on Life

Nothing happens by chance; even a leaf blowing in the wind does so because G-d wills it to. This book presents several analytical treatises by the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, of righteous memory, on the Baal Shem Tov's conception of Hashgacha Pratis, Divine Providence.

At every single step; G-d takes each of us by the hand and leads us in the way that is best for us, both materially and spiritually.
